property overview

Timeless hospitality and culinary variety take center-stage at this Bavarian hotel on the banks of the Tegernsee.

Timeless hospitality and culinary variety take center-stage at this hotel on Lake Tegernsee, one of Germany’s most beautiful resort destinations for both summer and winter. Bavarian tradition still plays a decisive role in the Tegernsee Valley and the beautiful traditional clothing is loved and used for all occasions. There is a private beach, key for summer seasons when crowds flock to the public shores from nearby Munich. The resort’s spa is one of the largest in the region, and it offers relaxing, pampering massages or other treatments using a range of products such as Clarins, La Prairie, O.P.I. and St. Barth. An equally indulgent experience can be found at the hotel’s three-Michelin-starred restaurant.
